Businesses Respond to Catalonia Crisis
We gauge the mood of businesses in Catalonia as Madrid takes control of its institutions.
We gauge the mood of businesses in Catalonia as Madrid takes control of its institutions. We hear from the business community in Spain and ask about the difficulties of the current situation. Also in the programme, we hear how a key rail link in the new silk road between China and Europe has opened in Azerbaijan. We take a health check of the Worldwide Web with Mark Surman, director of the Mozilla Foundation, which maintains the Firefox web browser. We find out why celebrity chefs hitting social media in Nigeria has led to a resurgence of traditional dishes in the country's finest restaurants. Plus we hear about a Japanese marketing firm that has added six days of annual leave for non-smoking workers to compensate for the amount of time their smoking colleagues spend on breaks.
